Learn the basics to screenprinting! In this two day course, we'll cover how to build your own wooden silkscreen, drawing for screen, and using photo-emulsion exposures to create a dynamic graphic series of images. Day one will cover making your own screen which you can take home, as well as image generation. Day two will cover registration techniques, printing and editioning. Our experienced printmakers will guide you through materials, and the possibilities you can reach using this incredibly effective print method. Materials and paper are provided, though participants are encouraged to bring their own textiles for printing.

Youth Workshop

Station Gallery (Whitby, ON)
1pm to 4pm
$65 SG patrons/$75 non-patrons
Over the course of two days, artist Maureen Da Silva will engage youth in a number of creative writing activities which they’ll then bind into small books, or handmade artist books. During the first workshop, youth will use creative writing strategies to develop personal responses to the art featured in Station Gallery’s current exhibition. Activities will include Free-writing experiments, group compositions, point of view writing, as well as a number of poetry and sketching exercises. During the second workshop they’ll create two books out of their musings including a stab bound collection of their writings, as well as an accordion-style book work inspired by their favourite poetic response. Includes all materials. 11-15 years.
